In terms of a word processor, I’d like something that will allow me to save files in in .docx format. I’m also not interested in one of those subscription-based word processors where you pay for it by the month. I’m happy to pay for something that will meet my needs, but I’d prefer a one-time payment rather than paying by the month or year. Lastly, I’d rather not use a processor that requires an internet connection. I generally prefer to do my writing offline.
As far as that Google prompt goes, google mail is working without issue. I followed those instructions in system preferences, but once I get to internet accounts, it shows the account is logged in. It’s almost like that notification comes up without actually needing to, like it hasn’t cleared or something. Thank you in advance for any insight you might have.
